Cheri-Bibi

Chéri-Bibi, a hulking figure wrongfully convicted of murder, escapes from Devil's Island by undergoing a drastic transformation: a mad surgeon grafts the face of the dying Marquis du Touchais onto his own. This new identity offers freedom and fortune, but comes with dire consequences. As a creation of Gaston Leroux, renowned for his iconic characters like The Phantom of the Opera, Chéri-Bibi embodies the thrilling blend of adventure and intrigue characteristic of Leroux's work during La Belle Epoque.
